He's not in NATO, afaict, he runs a NATO fanclub in Austria.

Most of them are just current internal administrative borders, like if we carved the US up along state or county lines. It's even lazier than you think.

The Ukraine's (and the west's) demands are utterly insane, but others have addressed that better. Just gonna nitpick that the USSR only put missiles in Cuba as a response to the US having stationed missiles in Turkey, right on the Soviet's doorstep. It should be called the 'Turkish Missile Crisis' or the 'NATO Missile Crisis' - it's always the US starting this shit and then, like an abusive partner, gaslighting the world into accepting their narrative, painting themselves as the victim when they're the aggressor.

Except that it doesn't work in the global north and never has. Hell, it has never even been implemented in the way these psychos want, cause even the worst neoliberal inhuman trash understand that these libertarians are deranged idiots.

It was a Nazi uprising in Hungary, in 1956, not Czechoslovakia, but otherwise spot on.

How are people okay with this? Because western liberals are, deep down, incredibly racist. They love this war as it gave them an acceptable outlet for their fascistic tendencies. I guarantee you if it were a black country they'd all be dropping tactical N-words and painting it as progressive.

In a just world every NAFoid would be sent to the front to be slaughtered en-masse charging through minefields.

Lot of Nazi fans popping in from other instances I guess.

"Keep Thinking" - in this ukronazi's case, "start thinking" might be useful advice, as he's clearly not right now.

In Marxist terms, the state is a tool of class oppression, it is the machinery by which one class imposes its will on all others. Under capitalism (or rather, under a dictatorship of the bourgeoisie (DotB), like e.g. the US, UK, France, Brazil, etc.) it is the bourgeois class who controls the state and uses it to oppress the proletariat (and any remnants of prior classes like the peasantry). In a dictatorship of the proletariat (DotP), that structure is inverted and the proletariat uses the state to oppress the bourgeoisie (and any remnants of say, aristocracy or whatever).

The idea is that in a DotP, the bourgeoisie will eventually become proletarianized and, after a long enough period when there are no more bourgeoisie, there will be no more proletariat (as classes are defined in terms of the conflict between them). Without a class system, there will be no longer any reason for the state - as that tool of class oppression to exist. All that will be left in terms of governance, will be the administration of things. You still need to manage healthcare, housing, transport, etc.

I'm not even sure we have the same intended long-term goal as them tbh. At least, a lot I've come across really seem to think 'stateless' means no government, no large scale infrastructure, the old 'someone will make insulin as a hobby' meme.
